==General Thoughts==
AJJ - Adrian mentioned metadata and search engine optimization. This is an important issue - Google has a document about this:
[[http://static.googleusercontent.com/external_content/untrusted_dlcp/www.google.com/en//webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimization-starter-guide.pdf Google SEO Guide]]
 
ARR - Here are some preliminary ideas for extra metadata to put on the site:
 
<nowiki><META name="description" content="Portal for small angle scattering - information and resources"> </nowiki>
 
<nowiki><META name="keywords" content="SAS, SAXS, SANS, reflection, facilities, beam lines, instruments, programs, software, conferences, jobs, news"> </nowiki>
